Olmiite
N'Chwaning II Mine, Kalahari, South Africa
Miniature, 4.6 x 3.1 x 2.4 cm
SOLD
One of the very few specimens of matrix, rich with multiple crystals (to 8mm), from a small part of the pocket collected by well-known miner here, Paul Balayer. It is a very aesthetic miniature, with high luster, great translucency, and a very unique overall aspect compared to other finds and species. It looks for all the world like a Tsumeb cobaltian smithsonite specimen of top quality - and quite unlike previous finds of olmiite.
